The one number that needs to come up is his deffensive rebounding. This should climb some as he puts on more weight, as his length and instincts seem promising. I still am not ready to slot him in as a full time PF- especially when some teams send out players like Howard, Duncan and Garnet at that position. Against big frontcourts we need to shift him down to SF, unless we are good enough to force the other team to make an adjustment and go small.

We should give Sam some credit here. Without him there is no way we could consistently throw out smaller lineups- especially because of his role as a shotblocker (slam dunker, Sammy Deeeee.) Sam has really developed as an anchor defensively in the post. He can guard the better player in the post, and is both a good shotblocker and active on the boards.
